Jody - Looks great. I wouldn't worry about the cukes, but I will tell you that broccoli is a thermogenic food so it revs up your metabolism plus it helps to keep you regular. You may have some constipation problems if you don't eat it. Have you tried it cooked different ways? Let me know if you would like some ideas on how to fix it

I found this in a magazine, bought the book and have been reading it ever since. I plan to start the plan on Monday October 20, 2008. I've done low carb before, but didn't stick with it because of the things I had to totally leave out.

I am really excited and scared too.

Thank you, Kelley. I will

Meal 3: grilled chicken on salad of lettuce and cucumber with 1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil and apple cider vinegar
Meal 4: Orange Dream Protein Shake
Meal 5: Lettuce with cucumbers and full-fat dressing. (The fish was too fishy and couldn't eat it.) Also had 1 cup broccoli

Didn't have a meal 6 as I didn't have enough time in the day for it.

Am I on the right track?

Looking good but make sure you get enough protein and don't be surprised if you start feeling like poopie soon. It will go away soon and you will feel fantastic. Remember it is only 7 days and you are already done with 2! If you are hungry go for more protein and a little extra fat.

[LC Woe is me]

M1: Protein shake, coffee with heavy cream
M2: Choc premade shake
M3: Chik salad, vin & oil dressing, 2 pieces Calif. roll sushi, water
M4: Salmon patty, broccoli, water
M5: Protein shake

Posting is really helping me not reach for the snack pack candy in the office. Rest day for elliptical, may go walking in the mall.

[wildcat1842]

I have no idea what week I'm on, I think it's week 13? But I am starting back at week 2.

Carb Down

M1: Mocha Protein Shake
M2: Ham
M3: Got home from walk (burned 700 calories) and I was starving, about to pass out. So I stuffed some salami (bad ) and a cheesestick in my mouth. Then I made my lunch: 3oz leftover steak, broccoli, 2 slices EZ toast
M4: Skipped
M5: Tortillaless fajitas
M6: Atkins shake

[free to be me]

Week 9 day 2 carbing down down baby....down by the roller coaster...sweet sweet baby...I don't want to let you go...OH MY WORD I AM TIRED!!
M1 Coffee and Chocolate Atkins Shake
M2 3 egg whites, 1 yolk mixed with 1/4 cup cottage cheese and a tsp mustard with chopped celery and a sprinkle of onion and paprika. 2 slices EZ toast
M3 3 cups romaine lettuce/radicchio/spinach with 3 oz chicken and 2 TBS Greek Vinaigrette
M4 3 egg whites and cheese stick
M5 3 oz grilled chicken chopped and added to pureed broccoli soup (2 cups broccoli and 12 oz vegetable broth..non-fat with 1 TBS parm)
M6 Vanilla Rum shake! Kelley...at room temperature this is good and much more like eggnog!!
M7 I know I know...but I was hungry!!! 3 egg whites, 1 laughing cow wedge and 1 celery stalk

Burned 450 cals at the gym...I know I did not eat enough in the morning...ran out of time...that was my downfall in the evening BUT I stayed with my carb down plan! I just needed some exta protein. Kelley, I need to make your egg popovers for those busy-busy rush-rush mornings!

[jkvetter]

Yesterday's Plan:

I worked in the office and then taught again last night, so there does not seem to be enough time in the day!

M1: Wendy's Egg Cheeseburger (easy)
M2: 3 ounces turkey/cheese rollup
M3: Tuna in water with hard boiled egg, 1 T Mayo with olive oil, dill relish (Had no carbs no sugar) on celery
M4: Filet mignon (I don't care for sirloin), seasoned with just salt and pepper and rosemary with 1 cup broccoli and a lettuce and cucumber salad with full fat ranch dressing.
M5: (After class) scrambled 1 whole egg with 2 egg whites and a sprinkle of cheese.

I hope to be able to do the shakes today. In just two days I see a difference. I have on a nightgown that was so tight I couldn't wear it and it is hanging loose. I had actually started doing Breaking The Vicious Cycle plan and lost a few inches, but the funny thing is that I have put on 6 pounds! I'm working out so I must be putting on lean muscle too!
